No to violence in Canada. How about learning or re-learning tolerance instead, just like Mr. Enrico Macias&#8217; song below? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"La tol\u00e9rance\" width=\"840\" height=\"630\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/VgwrIeNL_eo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p> <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/bambisafkar.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/heart-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28774\" style=\"width:208px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bambisafkar.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/heart-3.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bambisafkar.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/heart-3-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vandalism is an act that involves a deliberate damage or destruction of a public or private property.
